2025 Women's Sports & Health Expo

The 2025 Women’s Sports & Health Expo proved what’s possible when we come together to uplift, empower, and celebrate women in their fitness journeys. It showed just how much we can accomplish when passion and community unite.

A heartfelt thank-you to our incredible sponsors, vendors, and the thousands of attendees who brought their energy and made the event unforgettable.

We’re inspired by what we achieved together — and we can’t wait to make 2026 even bigger and better.
